Khat–La / Basic Pulse Harmonizer
The artifact is intended for the treatment of profound disorders and disharmonies at the base frequency level. He dresses on a hand with three, five or six fingers.
Tools used to perform this retrofit:
The Gibson Les Paul Handbook by Paul Balmer ($16.50 from Amazon)
Dremel™ rotary tool (grinding, fret polishing)
Screwdriver with hex head socket, multiple tips stored inside
Hex bit for the above, to use sockets
Deep 1/4" socket, for jack and pot nuts
Narrow walled 5/16" socket, for truss rod adjustment
Small Phillips and Standard tip jeweler's screwdrivers
Wire snips and needle-nosed pliers
Multimeter, digital auto range ($13 on eBay)
Pair of alligator clip leads
Micrometer, with digital readout ($12 on eBay)
X-Acto™ knife
Small pistol-grip battery-powered drill with hex head socket
Turbo Tune string winder, pulls apart for drill use ($8 from Stew-Mac)
Helping Hands clips w/ lighted magnifier and soldering station
25 Watt soldering iron (pen type), chisel tip
Desoldering bulb, solder wick for cleanup
Solder, 60/40 resin core
Wire strippers
Bright halogen desk lamp
Acrylic ruler with metal straightedge to check fret level (not shown)
Also essential: Besides a few cleaning/polishing products, three large thick bath towels to lay flat or roll up, to both support and protect the guitar.
Don't let a fear of soldering prevent you from doing your own guitar work. If you can play guitar, you already have more than enough dexterity to do it. Basic instructions and how-to videos are all over the Web; spend five minutes to learn and five minutes to practice, and you'll have it down well enough. Just remember:
1. Heat the part, not the solder; apply solder to the part, not the tip.
2. Don't get the parts too hot. That can melt insulation or fry a capacitor (I've 'cooked' a few pots and ruined them from excessive heating after lots of pickup swapping). Using hemostats or aluminum heat sink clips (even larger alligator clips) can keep things from overheating.

1st Regiment, Basic Camp, Cadets learned weapons check and performed weapons maintenance, learning how to assemble and disassemble their firearms June 12, 2018 during Cadet Summer Training at Fort Knox, Ky. Photo by: Madison Thompson
A lot of refinement left to go, but so far, so good! Most of the blade bevels have been made with gradual passes of bondo. You can tell the individual layers apart by their color difference - smaller batches work better than trying to do it all at once.

aaaaand there you have it!
Enjoy : )

A quick portrait with Orbis ring light and small silver reflector.
I love how the light is a little harsh and soft at the same time. Nice glow on the skin and lots of detail in the shadows. I think I have to use the Orbis more often for portraiture!

This is Basic Beach, a tiki cocktail created at Trailer Happiness in London, England. Tiki cocktails are unique positioned towards "taking the piss" as a brit might say. This tall pineapple-heavy cocktail appears to be a retro-modern squeal to the Blue Hawaii. Instead of the extremely azure blue curaçao, the 80's sensation of Midori with its nearly radioactively intense green hue steps in. Banana liqueur shows up in place of the vodka, which brings some extra flavor. The tropical mix of banana and pineapple pair nicely with the melon for a delicious drink, even it isn't as nuanced. Just like the Blue Hawaii, it's best to let your ego go, embrace your inner basic bitch, and grab a selfie with this drink.
0.75 oz white Cuban-style rum
0.75 oz Giffard Banane du Brésil
0.75 oz Midori
1.5 oz fresh pineapple juice
0.75 oz fresh lime juice
Combine all of the ingredients into a shaker tin. Add a small scoop of crushed or pebble ice. Whip-shake until all or most of the ice is melted. Pour unstrained into a large chilled hurricane glass (or another appropriately selfie-worthy tiki vessel). Top with more crushed or pebble ice. Garnish with pineapple fronds and banana chips (or other flamboyant garnishes)
